Uganda reports 7 cases, and 11 nations face elevated risk. The U.S. is deploying $23 million to bolster detection and response across the DRC, Uganda, and South Sudan, declaring full-scale mobilization. Travelers from affected zones must re-enter the U.S. via three major airports or face denial of entry. The first American infected, Dr. Peter Stafford, was evacuated to Germany after working in Congo since 2023. Experts warn multiple infection cycles may have already occurred, accelerating case growth. Containment and resource deployment remain critical as the situation evolves.
